Rebirth of my 26-year-old landlady

Chapter 41 Spending the night with He Bailu for the first time (read more)
Lin Qin was puzzled when he heard what Du Qingling said.

He asked, "What's wrong?"

He Bailu didn't seem to want to mention this matter.

So she said to Du Qingling: "Okay, Qingling, I'm fine."

But Du Qingling ignored He Bailu, and began to say vividly: "Brother, you don't know, last night there was a drunk man who kept knocking on the door of the house, kept knocking, and then broke open the door."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qin quickly looked at He Bailu and asked, "Sister Lu, are you alright?"

He Bailu squeezed out a smile, pretending to be calm and said, "It's okay, don't listen to Qingling's embellishments, he just knocked on the door a few times, and then left."

"I added oil and vinegar?!" Du Qingling interrupted: "If someone knocks on my door in the middle of the night, I will definitely be scared to death."

She immediately looked at Lin Qin, with a slight questioning meaning: "Brother, where did you go last night?"

"I'm back to school." Lin Qin explained.

"What school are you going back to? You rented this place, and then left the room here and went back to the dormitory?" Du Qingling suggested: "You can sleep here tonight, and I will sleep here too. If that drunken man still comes later, then we will call the police tonight."

He Bailu said helplessly: "Qingling, Xiao Qin can sleep wherever he wants to sleep. You go back to your place tonight, it's not as mysterious as you said."

Du Qingling insisted, "What if that drunk man comes again?"

He Bailu said calmly, "Of course I will call the police, don't worry."

Originally, Du Qingling wanted to persuade her again, but at this moment a phone rang.

Her boss asked her to go back to work overtime.

In desperation, Du Qingling could only leave early.

Before leaving, she looked at Lin Qin and reminded in a low voice: "Brother, Sister Lu is your landlord, you can't ignore it."

Seeing that Du Qingling was still talking, He Bailu pushed her out of the house and urged, "Your boss is looking for you, let's go."

After finally sending her away, He Bailu breathed a sigh of relief.

She then turned to look at Lin Qin, and explained: "Don't listen to her nonsense, it's fine."

After speaking, He Bailu returned to the sofa.

Lin Qin came over.

He asked tentatively: "Sister Lu, how long has that drunk man been outside the door?"

He Bailu thought for a while and replied, "About a few minutes."

"Did you not plan to call the police?" Lin Qin asked.

"At first I wanted to call the police, but after he left, I didn't call the police." He Bailu was worried that Lin Qin would think too much about it, so she reassured him: "It's nothing, I guess he went to the wrong room and knocked on the wrong phone."

Lin Qin nodded, and had no choice but to say, "It should be."

But looking at He Bailu's eyes, he knew that she must have felt scared last night.

So Lin Qin planned to sleep here tonight.

After making sure that no one comes to harass you again, go back to school by yourself.

He Bailu also seemed to guess what Lin Qin was thinking.

She then said, "Xiao Qin, if you have to do something, then go, I guess that man won't come tonight."

Lin Qin smiled and said, "I'm a college student, so I'm so busy."

"By the way, sister Lu, are you going to have a drink at the cafe opposite the neighborhood?"

Perhaps because he wanted to relax, He Bailu agreed.

She followed Lin Qin out of the community and came to the cafe.

According to the previous habit, the two re-sit at the same table where they first sat together.

Order two cups of coffee and each start killing time.

In the evening, He Bailu suggested that Lin Qin come to his house for dinner.

So the two returned home.

Lin Qin watched her skillfully tied up her hair, wearing an apron, washing vegetables and cutting meat.

For a while, I couldn't help but be fascinated.

This may be the future of life.

Naturally, he didn't take any time off. Taking advantage of this time, he replaced the bucket in the water dispenser, and then cleaned up.

He Bailu watched him busy outside in the kitchen, and wanted to say something.

But in the end, he still cut vegetables silently.

It didn't take long for a potluck to be done.

During the meal, Lin Qin also said to He Bailu: "Sister Lu, I may go out to buy some goods later, and I may not be able to go back to the dormitory, so I will rest here tonight."

After hearing this, He Bailu didn't have much emotion. She explained, "You rented a room from me. You can rest here whatever you want, as long as you pay the rent on time every month."

Lin Qin also nodded with a smile: "Don't worry, the rent must be paid on time every month."

He finished his meal quickly, then got up and left.

Soon, He Bailu was the only one in the room.

She is also working with a computer as usual.

Although it was almost the same as usual, when Lin Qin was going to sleep here tonight, I felt an indescribable feeling in my heart.

She knew that Lin Qin must have temporarily decided to rest here tonight because of the drunk man last night.

This also made He Bailu feel a little more guilty.

[Let’s cook one more dish next time. 】

This is the best way for He Bailu to compensate Lin Qin.

As for Lin Qin.

He didn't go to stock up.

In fact, the purchase has been enough for more than half a month.

He just found an excuse to spend the night, and then he would return to the Bauhinia community and enter the room logically.

Thinking of sleeping at He Bailu's place for the first time.

Lin Qin felt a little nervous.

Wandering on the street, he came to a milk tea shop.

Considering that drinking milk tea at night may not be able to fall asleep.

He ended up ordering two cups of fruit tea.

At about ten o'clock, Lin Qin returned to the Bauhinia community with fruit tea.

In the process of taking the elevator, he also paid attention to the situation of the people around him.

Guess where the drunk man was last night.

However, the probability of drinking madly for two consecutive nights is still very small.

So Lin Qin felt that the drunk man would not come again tonight.

But I was able to take advantage of this opportunity and successfully stayed in He Bailu for one night.

As long as there is the first time, followed by the second and third times, she can adapt to this kind of cohabitation life.

Not long after, he took out the key and opened the door.

Perhaps because of last night's experience, He Bailu chose to work with a computer in the living room this time.

So when she heard movement outside the door, she couldn't help but be extra careful.

It wasn't until Lin Qin opened the door and walked in that He Bailu calmed down a little.

"Sister Lu, I bought a cup of fruit tea for you." After speaking, Lin Qin handed the fruit tea to He Bailu.

He Bailu said, "Thank you, how much is this cup? I'll give it to you."

"No need, I've been taking your food for the past two days, and this cup of fruit tea will be used as food money, just don't dislike it." Lin Qin laughed happily.

Seeing this, He Bailu didn't mention the money either.

She took a sip and continued working.

Lin Qin didn't bother He Bailu in the following time, but sat on the sofa and played with his mobile phone, thinking that it was time to take a shower and go to bed.

Just as he was about to use his mobile phone and go back to his room to get his clothes, there was another hasty knock on the door.

Someone even kept turning the doorknob, as if trying to pick the lock.

The knock on the door frightened He Bailu who had been concentrating on her work.

She glanced back at Lin Qin, just about to say something.

But Lin Qin shook his head, signaling not to speak, and then calmly walked towards the wooden stick by the door.
